#

Dan Abnett looks a lot different than I imagined them haha

vivid rune
#

so

#

contrast paint

#

tastes familiar

#

but funny

median pumice
#

I... always envisioned him with a hat

#

.... is it good tho that's the question

#

Also do they have different flavors?

hasty sorrel
#

puddles no....

#

your only supposed to drink the paint water

median pumice
#

Are their different vintages?

#

Like.. original contrast blue vs new formula

plush swift
#

Wait did i miss the entire stream?

hasty sorrel
#

nuln oil is the best vintage

#

yes

median pumice
#

Yep. Biggest thing was I think plastic gaunts ghosts

vivid rune
#

idk what to call the flavor

plush swift
#

😖

vivid rune
#

snakebytes leather just tastes...familiar

#

sweet

median pumice
#

... is it good tho?

vivid rune
#

its a little sweet

#

as good as tasting paint accidentally could be

hasty sorrel
#

so

#

with the fact the BL unit was IG

#

whats the chances of more IG on friday

median pumice
#

Fingers crossed for plastic death korp of krieg

hasty sorrel
#

theres no way they just happen to release new plastic IG now after cancelling all the metal ones without it being the start of something

#

or well

#

there is a way

#

but i hope in vain

#

🙏

median pumice
#

There was that image of like.... that landmine mini?

#

That was IG

But then again the other day was that AoS mobile game right?

royal compass
#

hasty sorrel
#

median pumice
#

So why not toss that in on a media day?

hasty sorrel
#

we just discussed this

#

big hype

vivid rune
#

that mobile game could of just like...not been previewd

hasty sorrel
#

median pumice
#

From a distance I keep thinking hlain Larkin has a bow in that picture haha

hasty sorrel
#

and they know thats w/e

median pumice
#

Ahh true

royal compass
#

I mean, they are new... IG... plastics... so anything could happen with the rest of the range, right? 😉

hasty sorrel

median pumice
quaint halo
#

So it finally happened. Guard got new minis

median pumice
#

Their IG just posted close ups

quaint halo
#

struggle must resist urge to buy more minis

median pumice
#

Same. I've got enough unpainted ones... but man they'd make a good kill team

trim hemlock
green cave
#

Oh, that is interesting, probably will answer my question regarding necron tech being looted by orks

median pumice
#

I did see an awesome conversion a few months back. A looted necron monolith repurposed as a stompa or gargant. It was cool

quaint halo
#

So I'm going to convert a Patriarch for GSC to have a Lictor head to fit the Cthulhu genestealer esthetic but I'm undesided on to use a Deathleaper head or regular Lictor

#

The multiple eyes would fit the other worldliness but personally I think the regular Lictor head is better

median pumice
#

Can you detach the tentacles and attach it to the multi eye one?

quaint halo
#

It's possible may have to green stuff

#

Oh shoot just looked at the sprew for the Broodcoven... the head and body are one piece

#

content://com.android.chrome.FileProvider/images/screenshot/16202416148002310830039212233521.jpg

#

Nuts probably gonna have to greenstuff

median pumice
#

Maybe do some molding of your own? Get the tentacles and mash it with the multi eye into some green stuff, pour some liquid resin or something and get a new face?

quaint halo
#

I'll see my other options

#

I might just cut off the bottom jaw and use wires and greenstuff to mold the tentacles

median pumice
#

Look forward to seeing it!

quaint halo
#

Gonna be my first real attempt with greenstuff since I had the genius idea to try to put civil war union caps on my Guardsman

#

Oh my friend gave me an idea

#

Use a reaper mini's head

#

Not the fuck huge one but one of the others

Took a little break from 40k to finish up this bad boy

Seeing as vermintide hasnt i doubt it

#

Comment brought to you by plague monk gang

dusky mango
#

good point

median pumice
#

I was looking at converting some for a darktide squad, the two in cadian armor are the easiest to do, maybe a head swap for the woman Sargent, the ogryn can probably be done up too... it's the priest that I worry about. Maybe one of the old priests from warhammer fantasy with a head swap from a sister of battle?

dusky mango
#

maybe

#

I hope it works

@opal egret his stovepipe hat still ontop of it

bold copper
#

question for fellow hobbyists: Do you prefer poseability or options when it comes to building your models?

feral ingot
#

Yes, very much yes

#

But I am also creative and use greenstuff where able

#

but I keep myself in a frame

#

If I can use existing pieces, I will

vivid rune
#

@bold copper it purely depends on the sculpt and game its being used for

Oh shit. 40K day 2 today right?

Nope

Today is boxed games. Like adeptus titanicus

Or bloodbowl

Boxed games

median pumice
#

Hoping for an update to kill team

twilit cliff
#

That'd be neat

rose sluice
#

Still the possibility for some decent models but

median pumice
#

Hmmm... does this include the whole... start collecting sets?

rose sluice
#

No

median pumice
#

Dang

sour hill
#

😔

#

Kill Team would be neat.

twilit cliff
#

Any wish lists for kill team?

sour hill
#

Just more content in general. I haven't played tabletop at all, currently just collecting. So having new content show up right now would be pretty fantastic.

rose sluice
#

Thought the whole point of kill team was you used what you had anyway?

sour hill
#

Kill Team looks like probably the MOST fun I'd have with 40K. I love the concept of it.

quaint halo
sour hill
#

And small, cohesive unit too.

#

@quaint halo Give me a Combat Patrol Tyranids please.

#

With that new Codex.

#

🙏

quaint halo
#

Which sucks because personally I think the Start Collecting boxes are a great entry-level waybin

#

Seriously the Thousand Sons $95 box gives you what you need

rose sluice
#

Thousand sons don’t really have much else though really

quaint halo
#

But it gives you the basics

#

A leader and 2 troops

rose sluice
#

I know that

#

But there isn’t much else they can give you with thousand sons

quaint halo
#

I'm talking about the whole Start Collecting line

rose sluice
#

Some of them are dogshit. There are a few outliers

quaint halo
#

Maybe with the exception of the Nids box everyone gets a basic starter army

rose sluice
#

The tau one is really bad

#

Depending what you’re going for i guess

#

My friend does tau and he said it’s shit

#

CSM only draw is that they have exclusive models

#

But you can buy them cheaper elsewhere

#

The admech one used to be good and they made it shit

#

New combat patrol is really good but

quaint halo
#

Getting up there in price...

rose sluice
#

Yeah that’s the only thing

#

They combat patrols are really hard to compare between eachother

sour hill
#

I just need collection boxes for armies.

#

I don't care what shape or form they take

#

Like. If it builds a basic army (even if suboptimal) but I get some cool figures to add to my collection, I'm good.

rose sluice
#

I mean yeah

#

But comparing the current admech start collecting and the combat patrol they are getting i’d rather take the combat patrol

sour hill
#

I haven't paid attention.

#

But hopefully their new combat patrol is all plastic

#

Nice updated models.

rose sluice
#

Only thing it’s missing is a dominus

#

Got an engineseer instead

crisp olive
#

Is combat patrol a new name for Start Collecting?

elfin yew
#

The combat patrols tend to be more expensive but better value overall tbh

#

+they make actual armies

#

The SC boxes are only good for some armies

#

Like I dont like the nid SC

#

Since its just genestealers/a broodlord/trygon

#

Which u dont rlly need like, a gillion trygons/broodlords

#

The best SC boxes are the ones with stuff you always need more of

crisp olive
#

Well, I have the newer Chaos so I have a little knowledge about SC

elfin yew
#

Yeee

hasty sorrel
#

best SC is the IG box

#

squad, heavy weapon, russ

quaint halo
#

Yeah just personally I think the Start Collecting sets need to stay at an entry level. Yes this is an expensive hobby but it should be enough to start someone out with small games

elfin yew
#

Compared to the combat patrol boxes?

#

The SC boxes arent actually enough to play 500 pt games

quaint halo
#

But it's an entry point

#

I supplemented my GSC box with a box of Aborrents

#

I got 498

elfin yew
#

Oh yeah

#

The patrols are good entry points too

#

GSC box is a rlly good SV

#

SC too*

#

Tau, GSC, and IG have the best SC boxes imo

quaint halo
#

I was talking about using SC boxes to bring new people in

#

Give'em a taste

Any way you can get a refund from etsy?

lapis tundra
#

Lol gw just made a new range of brushes?

#

Why

#

Nobody is going to buy their expensive stuff anyway

uncut olive
#

Imagine being rich enough to afford GW brushes

#

Or just anything from GW

lapis tundra
#

To be fair the layer s brush i bought is pretty good

#

But there are probably better and cheaper ones

sour hill
#

What is the best brush out there for hyper-fine detail?

#

GWs small layer looked decent. But not sure on quality of if there's equal substitutes.

quaint halo
#

I use Army Painters for fine details

sour hill

Got any link or specific one?

@quaint halo Appreciate that link!

I used to buy only gw brushes lol

#

And that’s just not true at all

#

Lol

median pumice
#

Day 4 starting

plush swift
#

Now i do army painters

void orchid
#

I've got a couple Windsor newton brushes and they're fantastic

#

Got tired of the synthetic brushes because the tips always ended up curling

sour hill
#

YES

void orchid
#

Can't use them for metalics tho, but that's not a big deal cuz thats usually not as detailed anyeay

sour hill
#

That's my issue, Chapin.

#

The fricken' tips keep curling. It's killing me.

void orchid
#

Natural hair brushes don't curl like that

#

So you can maintain the straight pointed tip indefinitely as long as you take care of thrm

sour hill
#

I definitely do. I'm careful to always clean off my brushes very well between colours and uses.

#

Not to oversaturate either.

void orchid
#

You can also use slightly stronger brush cleaning agents with natural hair brushes too, which is nice to do occasionally to do a deep clean

#

But yeah, I got a couple different sizes and realized after using them for a while that a good pointed tip is much more important than using smaller and smaller brushes

#

Small ones just dry out faster too

Little warden boy is coming along nicely not much is left to finish on him

quaint halo

They did SoB Tuesday even after showing a few previews

crisp forge
#

Yeah it has to be orks

hasty sorrel
#

they did but they also specifically mentioned a group having previews prior so wont show up on either

#

#

i think it was orks but unsure

waiting for orkz to get the only releases since hehe le memee xeno

it would be nice if tomorrow is just

The forces that need updates are IG, GSC, Tyranids, Craft Worlds, and Tau

So maybe it will be Xeno day

tbh orkz need the update but I'm just a lil bitter that it seems every xeno video game/release is le meemeee orkz

But probably more Spech Murines

hehe haha funny so everyone doesnt shut up about em

elfin yew
#

Yep

#

That's how I feel about them too

#

I just want new aspect lines 😩

#

And a new eldar codex

#

Their current codex is so dry

hasty sorrel
#

they are basically a minor faction that only continues to exist for main lore because they are easy to write and people are easily entertained

feral ingot
#

Farsight enclave units

hasty sorrel
#

fuck it, not even new aspect lines, just give me all the aspects in plastic

#

please

feral ingot
#

I need more big mechsuits going into melee

Isn't it?

Krorkz?

lapis tundra
#

Huh

feral ingot
#

Or wait Krorks were a fantasy thing? I was thinking of the giant ork things like The Beast and those

vivid rune
#

no

feral ingot
#

I thought the whole Painboy thing going forward was going to be like that

vivid rune
#

krorks are 40k

obtuse sinew
#

were ;-;

tiny cairn
#

ARE they just chilling

obtuse sinew
#

no they don't exist anymore

quaint halo
#

Krorks are the Orks ancestors from the War In Heaven

obtuse sinew
#

yeah, they devolve when they don't have foes that are greater than them

#

but, they evolve a bit more when they are fighting stronger ones; they also become bigger and I think smarter the more they fight

tiny cairn
#

Nah krorks are just chilling, they're waiting to get back out there

obtuse sinew

ok

Time to make Squid Assault Serberys Systems

Can you guys imagine the culture shock for those who make contact with my forgeworld?

''Hey what is that little fella?''
thats a C.R.A.B, we keep them as pets. They can snip ceramite plates in half, cute little things

If you want to be technical about it, being a pilot is a Path in itself so you could say James Workshop has already started updating aspect warriors.

green cave
#

Lol, look at this necron, rubbing salt in the wound of the eldars... Like a good respecting necron would do

crisp forge
#

FUUUU-

hasty sorrel
#

sorry to interuppt

#

sessions going well

green cave
#

So, one of them is dead, they are flanked by orks, and it seems there is a demon too... It seems nice

#

Oh, and still 4 out of 5 ork leaders still to kill if i understand correctly

hasty sorrel
#

the 2 that are flanked are a melee psyker and a commissar so they might be fine

#

but demon

#

yeah, the ork leader teleported into the middle of the camp with his boiz

green cave
#

This move remind me of the mek boss in DoW 1 when in skirmish it was the first thing that you would fight against ork AI

#

And he always teleport to your base that git

#

Ah! I noticed they have sly marbo with them, they will win, but will they survive?

hoary ermine
#

day 8 of working on my mech

#

i cut myself for the 7th time

#

i clipped off all of the top skin on the left side of my left thumb

hasty sorrel
#

its not actually sly marbo

#

just a chad death worlder

#

they chose the token for the npc cause they love him lmao

#

(bottom right rings are white phos)

green cave
#

Of course they cannot realize it is Sly, he is a master in camouflage

#

I think that cortez is toasted

hasty sorrel
#

yes

#

he got hit by the white phos

green cave
#

Then super toasted

opal egret
#

Wait

#

What is that you're playing?

hasty sorrel
#

Only war

opal egret
#

Intense sadness Man I wanna get into a game like that

green cave
#

Me too

#

But sadly i have no friend into WH40K, and none of my friends seems interested in it when i start my ramblings about it

obtuse sinew
#

F

#

I haven't got a game of any ttrpg in weeks

twilit cliff
#

How does this only war thing work?

obtuse sinew
#

numbers

#

lots of numbers

twilit cliff
#

I'm assuming it's online and theres a gm involved

obtuse sinew
#

well probably

#

unless you get folks in roughly the same place who can travel

#

based off of a d100 system

hasty sorrel
#

Yeah i GM for this group

#

6 players in it

#

Its pretty neat

#

with this specific one on top of making characters the party gets to make a unique regiment

#

So the party i am playing with made a siege vanguard regiment

green cave
#

Only war is so beautiful for me because it give you rules for pretty much anything... And that in only three manuals too...

hasty sorrel
#

Mechanized infantry specialised in defence or the offence against key strategic locations

#

The tank operator

#

just headshot a mega nob with a hunter killer missile

obtuse sinew
#

nice

green cave
#

That tank operators seems extremely lucky

opal egret
#

Wait wait

green cave
#

He also oneshooted someone else iirc, a demon maybe?

opal egret
#

Does only war let you play a tech adept?

hasty sorrel
opal egret
#

Because I thought dark Heresy would let you do it

hasty sorrel
green cave
hasty sorrel
#

DH lets you play a tech adept, OW lets you play a full tech priest

opal egret
#

That makes me very happy

hasty sorrel
#

And ye blank

#

they think the tank is blessed

#

because its only in the tank does he roll that well

#

last time he left the tank he lost an arm

obtuse sinew
#

wild

#

and fun!

green cave
#

The sad thing about Only War is that it was made before the skitarii were well defined, so no galvanic weapons and no arc weapons, nor flechette ones

obtuse sinew
#

well, maybe you could pull those from DH2?

green cave
#

And if you want those you need fan made stuff

green cave
obtuse sinew
#

they have arc weapons iirc

#

though that remembering could very well be wrong

hasty sorrel
#

DH 2e has atleast a flechette cannon

#

vehicle mounted

#

used it for a scout buggy in this campaign

opal egret
#

Fuck.

So what toys can you get as an Enginseer?

hasty sorrel
#

They all survived!

#

2 people had to burn the last of their fate

hoary ermine
#

oof

#

Good luck

median pumice
#

One last purchase to get my custodes boys in order. Now I need to choose between the caladius grav tank or the annihilator variant. I can run em as both but not sure of which I like the look of better. I'm sorta leaning towards the standard caladius because the turret looks smoother.

#

Thoughts? Opinions?

hoary ermine
#

depends

#

what are the profiles

#

i personally like the annihilator

hasty sorrel
#

i like the first one visually

hoary ermine
#

the chonky barrels on the sides are chad

median pumice
#

They're both 138 dollars US, so I'm only gonna get one of them and use both profiles. Itd be different if they sold the turrets separately. But forgeworld.

#

I'm leaning for the first one tbh, but both are kinda cool

crisp forge
#

OOF

#

Holy shit thats expensive what the hell

elfin yew
#

Forgeworld model I'm guessing

crisp forge
#

Yeah its FW but damn

median pumice
#

Yeah, its forgeworld xD

#

It's honestly why I was hoping for some damn plastic custodes fw stuff. Our heaviest hitters are forgeworld

elfin yew
#

Oooof that's how nids are atm too

#

best models are FW

They're beauties of kits, but they're pricey.

Oh... also have you guys ever used true metallic paints? I wanted to use this paint for blade edges. https://www.culturehustleusa.com/products/mirror

Culture Hustle USA

Here it is - your very own liquid mirror in a bottle! Ultra high grade mirror / chrome potion  Hybrid solvent based coating 15ml  For the first time EVER it’s now possible to brush apply (or spray) a truly realistic mirror/chrome. This challenge has baffled paint makers for decades, artists all over the world have been

vivid rune
#

Mask up and use a brush youre not afraid to throw away

#

That stuff is impossible to get out and its on the thicker side

#

Ive tried to thin it down but since its alcohol based i cant quite get it right without breaking it

median pumice
#

Oooh wow. Good advice. Do I need to treat the resin on anything before painting on?

vivid rune
#

Id wash it like all resin models

#

And for best effect

#

Use gloss black primer for the parts youre painting the chrome on

median pumice
#

I usually use a Vallejo aerosol as a base primer after cleaning it up

#

Ooooh gotcha. Good advice

#

I tend to skew towards matte colors.

vivid rune
#

The gloss REALLLY makes it pop

median pumice
#

Any advice on what to seal it with?

#

I was just gonna use it on blade edges

#

I'm not gonna weather it or anything

vivid rune
#

Probably a thinned gloss primer but im not quite sure havent sealed anything with it on yet

median pumice
#

Ahhh gotcha. I'll experiment with resin sprues, see what happens haha

vivid rune
#

I got quite the sealing backlog lol

median pumice
#

Lol same tbh. Along with my assembly back logs....

vivid rune
#

Dont remind me feelsbad

median pumice
#

Yeah its why I got the airbrush... I'm hoping it helps me speed along better hah

vivid rune
#

My problem with sealing with an airbrush is that its hard to tell which areas youve sealed or not

median pumice
#

Ahhh gotcha. I tend to use a spray seal... so I just... eyeball it <_<

void orchid
#

i use testors dullcote

#

its pretty durable in my experience, but yeah its kind of a guessing game as to how much is enough and if theres any spots i missed

#

i have a small container of uh... tamiya semigloss clear coat? i think thats what it is

#

for shiny stuff

#

havent really used it a whole lot tho

median pumice
#

Ahhh nice. I use the tamiya matte coat for my gundam stuff. Not sure about my minis though.... I'll probably experiment haha

median pumice
#

Sorry meant to type this in. I like it because if you put in any decals it seals them in suuuuuper flush. Its great.

In the future theyll probably get more models

rose sluice
median pumice

Yeah. I dont even play age of sigmar and I want those vampire knights. Also those foot vampires from that one boxed game. Absolutely stunning

They also refuse to take down art or content when people that made it request them to do so.
they also censor comments on this behavior
